    Please, for the love of god, no more "White Rabbit" to hit viewers over the head with the fact that a character is entering a looking glass world of sex, drugs, whatever. It is beyond cliched.

    Martha, Gabriel, Kama Sutra. It's gonna happen.

    He has all the money in the world but won't fix his teeth.

    Gee, that glass from the stamp frame hit Ray in just the right place. Kind of ridiculous.

    That show feels so real to me at this point in time that I (as a woman) can hardly bear to watch it. The Mike Pences of this world would not be misplaced in Gilead. I'm not saying this to pile on, but please believe, to many of us The Handmaid's Tale illustrates a potential threat.

    I thought it was good, but an Edgar Award? I think Hawley has reached a point of celebrity where he will be praised to the skies no matter what. (Except for a few grumblers in the AV Club comment section.)

    I like it rather than love it like I did the other two.

    Team Pee here. The other would not have been repulsive enough.

    She's a wonderful actor, but her role is about as interesting as Lou Solverson's. The white knight is needed but boring.

    Was anyone else impressed by the Bear's Den restaurant? Those gigantic wild animal reliefs were spectacular.

    Made me wonder if he was somehow in on it or being pressured from above.

    This was the first episode that made me feel the season was finally rolling.

    Trumpian. There, I said it. The observations various characters made in this episode about the nature of truth sounded ripped from the past few months' headlines.

    Something is definitely up.

    Or Lester putting his wife in his parka and sending her in to his office to be shot in season 1? Or Don Chumph being taped to an exercise bike and then blasted to death? (I know he was an asshole, but still …)

    Still a viable theory. She got off easy.

    No. In fact, I found her survival anticlimactic. Come on, Fargo, bring it!

    I almost had a sense that they would leave their kids—that Pastor Tim's thoughts about them had hit the mark, that Paige would be better off without them and Henry is going to boarding school, anyway.

    I've said it before and I'll say it again: Vice President Mike Pence would fit in just fine in Gilead.

    She'd be better off dead.
